Question # 1:
Literature helps us to understand the character traits and motives of many different people. Some people are similar to us, and others are very different. Write a well developed paragraph in which you tell me which character in The Outsiders you are most like and why. You may choose any character, but you must make sure you connect to them in some real way.

I am most like Marcia because I would have been with my friend, and like Cherry and she did, I would have walked away from anyone who was drunk. I would not have spoken out and made a very strong impression right away. I would have waited to see what the situtation was and gone from there. I would have had my friend do most of the talking and made commits here or there. I would not be like Cherry- bold, couragous, and talkative with strangers. This is why I would be most like Marcia.
